Gynecomastia Surgery in Turkey – Male Breast Reduction

Gynecomastia, commonly known as male breast reduction, is a condition that affects many men, leading to self-consciousness and discomfort. Gynecomastia surgery in Turkey provides an effective solution by removing excess fat and glandular tissue to create a flatter, more masculine chest.

Turkey is a leading destination for male breast reduction surgery, offering experienced surgeons, modern facilities, and significantly lower costs compared to the UK and Australia.

What is Gynecomastia Surgery?

Gynecomastia surgery, also called male breast reduction, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat, glandular tissue, and sometimes skin to achieve a more contoured, masculine chest.

Men consider gynecomastia surgery for:

• Reducing excess breast tissue caused by hormonal imbalances, weight gain, or genetics.
• Improving chest contours for a firmer, flatter appearance.
• Boosting self-confidence and comfort in fitted clothing.
• Eliminating discomfort from excessive breast tissue.

Why Choose Gynecomastia Surgery in Turkey?

In the UK and Australia, long waitlists and high costs make male breast reduction surgery less accessible. Turkey offers expert surgery without delays, performed in internationally accredited hospitals by experienced specialists.

Gynecomastia surgery in Turkey is a cost-effective alternative, with comprehensive packages that typically include:

• Surgery & medical fees
• 1-night hospital stay for monitoring
• 6 nights in a hotel for recovery
• VIP airport and clinic transfers

The Gynecomastia Surgery Procedure – What to Expect

Gynecomastia surgery is a straightforward procedure with minimal downtime.

Step 1: Personalised Consultation

Before your surgery, you will have a detailed consultation with your surgeon to create a tailored treatment plan.

• Your chest will be examined to determine the best surgical approach.
• A treatment plan will be designed based on the amount of glandular tissue and fat.
• Your surgeon will explain the procedure and expected results.

Step 2: The Surgery

• The procedure is performed under general or local anaesthesia with sedation.
• A small incision is made near the nipple or under the chest.
• Liposuction or excision techniques are used to remove excess tissue and sculpt the chest.
• The surgery typically lasts 1.5 – 2.5 hours.
• Patients stay 1 night in the hospital for monitoring before returning to their hotel for recovery.

Step 3: Recovery & Post-Surgery Care

Following male breast reduction in Turkey, you will spend 1 night in the hospital before recovering in a hotel for 6 nights.

First Week of Recovery

• Days 1–2: Swelling, tightness, and mild discomfort.
• Days 3–4: Swelling begins to reduce, and mobility improves.
• Days 5–6: Compression garments must be worn for support.
• Day 7: Final check-up and Fit-to-Fly letter provided.

Long-Term Recovery

• 2–4 Weeks: Most swelling subsides, and chest contour improves.
• 6 Weeks: Full healing, with visible improvements.
• 3–6 Months: Final results appear as swelling fully settles.

Potential Risks Include:

• Swelling & Bruising – Common but improves within a few weeks.
• Temporary Numbness – Some loss of sensation in the treated area.
• Asymmetry – Minor variations in healing may occur.
• Scarring – Small incisions are strategically placed to be minimally visible.

Patients must be fully aware of these risks and make an informed decision before proceeding.
